Welcome

Never before in the history of this nation have so many been so apathetic about the freedoms and liberties bestowed upon them today by the blood and sacrifice of those before them.

Far too many today think of "tyranny" as being something only wielded by Kings and Queens of old or dictators in far away lands.

Yet tyranny comes in many forms, not the least of which is a central government that places its wants, its needs above the rights and liberties of the common citizen.

The meme of the legacy print media, the broadcast networks and the professional political class is that the Tea Party and anyone who dare associate with such is so "far right", "extreme", and "radical" they must be ridiculed, viled, and slandered at every opportunity else a modern American apocalypse is imminent.

And at this moment in history with pop culture being what it is, an educational system promoting ignorance over achievement, and economic conditions at their worst since the Great Depression, the number of minds susceptible to such propaganda has never been larger.

But who represents the true "radical", "extreme" "un-American" position?

The group that is fighting to revitalize the Constitution, raise awareness of the founding principles that birthed that Constitution, and protect the rights and liberties bestowed therein or a minority ruling establishment that desires only the continuance of its power and influence at all cost?

If you're of the former, WELCOME. You'll find yourself right at home here.

If you're of the latter, welcome as well. Yes, you're going to feel a little uncomfortable at first, but give it some time.

Obama’s False “Choices” Misleading But They Aren’t Ending

The false “choices” coming from Obama and his teleprompter may be misleading to the highest degree but don’t expect them to end any time soon.

From his latest whoppers regarding the “Buffet Rule” being about “fairness” while completely ignoring the fact that what he’s really calling for is a huge raise in the capital gains tax (For you dwainbwains out there that means a higher cost of capital which translates into lower economic growth.) to his oldest lies about his healthcare plan, there is only one thing you can be sure of: When faced with the choice between stating the truth or spewing the propaganda, propaganda wins out with this President each and every time.

“The choice for America could not be clearer”, is a phrase that’s going to be drilled down to China by both campaigns this election but it will be Obama and his campaign who will demonize and demagogue at a pace un-before seen in American politics.

Obama’s already shown his game plan and how he’s going to run. His play calling is straight out of Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals and will pit American against American as this nation has not seen since the bloody days of the Civil War.

His speech on “civil discourse” in Tucson following the Giffords tragedy has long been erased from the teleprompter memory banks and replaced with rhetoric and vitriol more akin to a Castro or Chavez than an American President.

Think I’m kidding?

When’s the last time you heard a President of the United States publicly state as fact his own lies and exaggerations about his political opponents?

From last year’s budget attack that “50 million Americans would lose their health care”, seniors would be left at the mercy of the insurance industry, poor, disabled and autistic children would be left to “fend for themselves” and flat out lying about the Bush tax cuts giving away “1 trillion….to every millionaire and billionaire” to this year’s:

“We wouldn’t have the capacity to enforce the laws that protect the air we breathe, the water we drink, or the food that we eat. Cuts to the FAA would likely result in more flight cancellations, delays and the complete elimination of air traffic control services in parts of the country. Over time, our weather forecasts would become less accurate because we wouldn’t be able to afford to launch new satellites and that means governors and mayors would have to wait longer to order evacuations in the event of a hurricane. That’s just a partial sampling of the consequences of this budget.”

Obama has made it perfectly clear he has no intention of letting the truth get in the way of his re-election.

To believe him literally is to believe we would all be dead without him.

That somehow without his massive increases in federal spending, bureaucratic growth, and government intrusion in our lives, our air, water, and the food we eat would not be fit for human consumption. That without the EPA spewing forth one regulation after another with no regard to cost/benefit or actual achievable result people would be keeling over on street corners from sea to shining sea.

And the “complete elimination of air traffic control services”, mayors having to wait to evacuate their cities?

How oh how then did we ever survive before 2008? How in the world did we even function in the pre-Obama era?

While it is truly sad to see Obama debase the office of the Presidency with such bombastic rhetoric, it is even sadder when you realize just how many idiots will actually believe the crap.

If you had any “hope” left that Obama would run on his policies and the benefits of the “change” he’s inflicted upon America it’s time for your reality check.

He has no intention of running on his record and his latest round of Presidential demonization proves it.

Obama knows that the only chance he as at a second term is to R.I.G. the election. (As in use Race, Income, and Gender to pit American against American and ride that wave of division to victory.)

He’s taking for granted that blacks will repeat their blind following of ’08, he’s assuming there’s enough Hispanics in favor of illegal immigration and government benefits that by bashing Romney and suing states trying to protect their sovereignty he’ll get a majority of that minority, he’s lying about the “Buffet Rule” and its impact to fan the flames of class warfare, and he hopes to divide along gender lines with the faux “war on women” claim.

Such tactics come as no surprise to the Corner and its readers as no one here ever drank the Kool-Aide and all eyes were open concerning Dear Leader’s background and the danger he posed to the nation from the very beginning.

But the danger of ’08 was miniscule compared to the threat now posed. If you think the expansion of the federal government’s powers and debt in Obama’s first term has been devastating, just wait and see what happens in a second.

That “chipping” away at the Constitution these past three years will become a full blown shredding party and the America founded upon the principles of individual liberty and limited government will become but a footnote in future history books.

Replaced instead by a “fair” and “just” social welfare state where the definition of achievement is not personal accomplishment or economic activity but rather how high the rung attained on the ladder of the government class.

So go ahead, believe Obama’s false “choices” all you wish, just realize that should your wish actually come true, you will find yourself living a nightmare never envisioned.
